Bridgetown by rail
Posted by bollinsl on June 7, 2009
Went down to Bridgetown by train.
The staff in Heuston never heard of Bridgetown, but I convinced the clerk that there was a train to Bridgetown.
As I have an anual commuter ticket to Hazelhatch, by tick from Heuston to Bridgetown cost a reasonable €34.80.
The ticket machine in Heuston swallowedmy ticket – unable to comprehend a ticket from Hazelhatch.
The ticket checker on the Cork train was also bemused… because of the timetable I had to go to Limerick Junction to get my connection to Bridgetown… I could have saved an hour by connecting in Waterford.. if there was a connection … but there is no connection…
Train staff not sure about return journey to Dublin on Monday…
Got to Bridgetown – taxi driver told me that I was the first passenger that he ever had getting off the train…
Hired a boat in Kilmore Quary
